DIVE IN THE BEAUTIFUL ISLANDS OF THE BAHAMAS
We have literally just returned from our 2021 trip on board the Aqua Cat and WE ARE GOING BACK! My friends, I can’t begin to tell you how good of a time we all had on this trip. This is almost as close to a perfect dive vacation as I have ever personally been on. First off, the Aqua Cat is an awesome live-aboard. Plenty of room for everyone. Never a feeling of being crowded. The staterooms were very comfortable and the in-stateroom bathrooms were bigger than most cruise ships I’ve been on. The dive deck was so diver friendly. Plenty of room to move about. And the dive deck has nice facilities including 2 separate enclosed showers with an unlimited supply of hot water!
The crew was to best. My goodness…they work so hard to make sure you are well taken care of. The food…awesome! Trust me on this…you will eat really good while on board the Aqua Cat. The dive crew were outstanding. Every dive was proceeded by a thorough dive briefing and every dive was guided for those who wanted it. As a PADI professional myself, I can’t tell you how proud of them in regards to their professionalism, attention to detail and overall friendliness.
Friends, this is a great trip. Nassau is easy to get to so the travel time is minimal and inexpensive. The Aqua Cat is very comfortable and diver friendly. And the diving was outstanding. My goodness…that was some of the best visibility I have ever had. Within this page is the actual trip video that the crew shot for us. Also…I have included a bunch of actual photos that were taken on this trip.
I am sure you can see we all had a great time, as a testament to that, as of this writing we have already sold almost half the staterooms to returning guests. So…if you are wanting to do this trip with us…don’t delay. Reserve your spots with us today. I promise, this will sell out soon.

Your personal invitation from Dan...
Dan and Suzy Mechelke would like to personally invite you to come join us for this awesome and unique adventure as we cruise/dive/explore the beautiful Exuma Cays. We will be sailing out of Nassau for a 7-night all-inclusive adventure on the 102ft. Aqua Cat. The tri-level Aqua Cat offers 11 passenger staterooms with private baths, a spacious dive deck, a main salon for dining & relaxing, a sundeck with panoramic views and an alfresco bar. The Aqua Cat is built for comfort. She is a catamaran style motor yacht with a 35ft. beam and she has some of the largest passenger cabins in the dive live-aboard industry.
On a personal note…Suzy & I are pumped up to do this trip. I have talked to several people who have sailed the Aqua Cat and I have only heard great feedback and excellent reviews. The boat, crew, service, food and most important…the DIVING are all first rate. And the parent company, All Star Liveaboards has a stellar reputation.

*We can not guarantee a specific cabin assignment. But please let us know if you have a preferred cabin choice and we will try our best to accommodate you.
*If we have friendly families traveling together, then these families can have their kids bunk-up together in one of the triple or quad occupancy staterooms (stateroom availability permitting). This way the parents can have privacy in their own staterooms.
*Single divers can ask us to try to get them buddied up with another single diver to share a stateroom with. This way you both get the double occupancy rate. Please let us know at booking whether or not you want our help with this.
